•  Boothe, who is playing his 100th career game as a Rocket vs. Loyola, leads UT as well as the MAC with 20.5 ppg. Joining Boothe in double figures are Williams (19.0 ppg.) and sophomore guard Stuckey Mosley (14.0 ppg).
•  Loyola captured the CBI title last year and posted a 24-13 win-loss mark. The Ramblers' only defeat this season is a 75-51 decision at New Mexico (Nov. 18).

•  Toledo leads the all-time series vs. Loyola by a 16-15 margin but has dropped the last six meetings in the series. Three of the Rockets' defeats against the Ramblers during that stretch have come in the 2011-12, 2012-13 and 2015-16 seasons.
